No, two dots followed by a slash "../" means go to the directory above
this one.  Relative paths like this can be troublesome.  If you *really*
want to start at the root path, then use the part of the path that
follows your domain name (beginning with a "/").

For example: if you are at http://www.mydomain.com/para/sales/index.php,
then the fixed-relative path is "/para/sales/index.php", where the first
"/" in the path indicates to start at the root directory of the current
domain.
